This is a thick, sweet syrup that's popular in America, but hard to find in other countries. Baked goods made with corn syrup are moister and stay fresher longer than those made with sugar. There are two types: dark corn syrup is dark brown and has a slight molasses flavor, while light corn syrup is almost clear and has a more delicate flavor. The two can be used interchangeably in many recipes. 'Karo' is a well-known brand. The Substitutes Are: golden syrup (Substitute measure for measure) OR honey (This is sweeter than corn syrup, but substitute it measure for measure.) OR molasses (Substitute measure for measure.)<br>
HIGH FRUCTOSE corn syrup is not a healthy sweetner according to most doctors. Plain old Corn syrup, which is made up entirely of glucose, is actually one of the bestsweeteners you can use because it doesn't contain fructose. Fructose is a form of sugar that doesn't produce an insulin response leading to overeating and weight gain. Of course there is always sugar, cane syrup, and if one is trying to cut down the sugar there are some sugar replacements that do not break down when baked.
If you don't have corn syrup handy, then the recipe below can be used in a pinch, but I wouldn't use it too frequently.
Answer #2
Homemade Light Syrup (corn syrup substitute)
2 c. white sugar
3/4 c. water
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
Dash of salt
Combine all ingredients in a large, heavy saucepan. Bring to boil while stirring to dissolve sugar. Cover and simmer for 3 minutes making sure that sugar is dissolved and sides of pan are free of sugar particles. Uncover; cook until syrup reaches soft ball stage while stirring often. Cool. Syrup can be stored in airtight container in refrigerator or at room temperature for up to 2 months.
You could use pancake syrup in place of light corn syrup, but the final product will have a maple flavor. Honey is not a good substitute for corn syrup because it is sweeter and has different baking qualities.

Possibly, but one is a liquid and the other isn't. I don't know if you could get enough sweetness with the syrup without having too much moisture for the recipe.
